Easy Buttercream Frosting


Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup shortening
  • 1/2 cup butter I use Natural lactose-free
  • 1 tsp vanilla
  • 4 cups icing sugar
  • 2 tbsp milk as needed, again I use Natural lactose-free

Instructions

  1. Beat the butter and shortening in the bowl of your mixer until blended and creamy. 

  2. Beat in vanilla. 

  3. Gradually add in the icing sugar, one cup at a time, beating well on medium speed and scraping down the bowl. 

  4. Once all the sugar is added, beat until light and fluffy.

  5. For spreadable consistency, add milk (or water or corn syrup) a little at a time until the desired spreadability is reached.
